Configuring Store Checkout

Store checkout settings shape how buyers move from cart to payment.

Key decisions

  • Checkout mode should match what the store mainly sells.
  • Checkout type controls whether the experience feels like a full page or a modal-style flow.
  • Guest checkout reduces friction for casual buyers.
  • Express checkout helps mobile and repeat customers move faster.

Good defaults

  • Leave guest checkout on unless your business truly requires account creation.
  • Turn on express checkout when supported payment methods and devices make it valuable.
  • Keep the store’s checkout behavior aligned with the kinds of products listed there.

Ready To Launch?

Start with the easiest path and get your selling setup live

You don’t need to build a full store before you can sell a protected download. Choose the digital-download path, compare plans, and launch with a focused storefront or embed.
